Jitendra Nath Pandey commented on HDFS-1779:
--------------------------------------------

A few comments:
TestAppend.java:
# I will recommend to rename the class to something like TestBBWBlockReport.
# Please use cluster.restartNameNode() instead of private restartNamenode.
# Can we avoid making dfs, namenode, outStream etc as class fields. 
# In tearDown, namenode.stop is not required because cluster.shutdown takes 
care of it. 
# outStream.close will likely fail after 
testDNShouldNotSendBBWReportIfAppendOff because namenode will be in safemode.
# waitFor method can be replaced with Thread.sleep.

> After NameNode restart , Clients can not read partial files even after client 
> invokes Sync.

> In Append HDFS-200 issue,
> If file has 10 blocks and after writing 5 blocks if client invokes sync 
> method then NN will persist the blocks information in edits. 
> After this if we restart the NN, All the DataNodes will reregister with NN. 
> But DataNodes are not sending the blocks being written information to NN. DNs 
> are sending the blocksBeingWritten information in DN startup. So, here 
> NameNode can not find that the 5 persisted blocks belongs to which datanodes. 
> This information can build based on block reports from DN. Otherwise we will 
> loose this 5 blocks information even NN persisted that block information in 
> edits.
